- The goal of the Seoul Robot and AI Museum is to advance innovation, science, and technology in society.

Florida, Dali Museum
The museum is dedicated to popular artist, Salvador Dali. He once said, “If I may die, though it’s unlikely, I hope the people in the café will say, Dali has died, though not entirely”. A technological rebirth has occurred at the Dalí Museum, where visitors can engage with the Spanish surrealist through the museum’s AI reimagining of Dalí in the modern era.
- In collaboration with the advertising firm Goodby Silverstein & Partners, the project “Dalí Lives” employed more than 1,000 hours of machine learning to teach an AI algorithm to recognize features of Dali’s face, which were then imagined on an actor.
- A visitor’s experience with the reimagined Dalí is as unique as the artist himself thanks to the 125 interactive videos that have thousands of possible combinations.
